Encircling Snæfellsnes Peninsula along Iceland’s west coast is a picturesque drive. The 56 mile long cape is shaped by a backbone of mountains culminating with Snæfellsjökull, a stunning glacier-capped stratovolcano. Along the way are lava fields, quaint farms, stunning coastlines and fascinating geological scenery.
